About AMA Tasmania

The AMA is a federal organisation with state and territory branches.

It supports Australian doctors in a number of areas including industrial, social, and welfare issues.

Over many years, the AMA has become recognised as an important body representing all Australian doctors and has now developed networks with federal and state governments and other important organisations. As is evidenced by the significant influence the AMA has been able to exert on important issues including COVID-19, Aboriginal health and welfare, anti-smoking legislation, and rural matters.
